The body of former Prime Minister Raila Amolo Odinga is currently en route to Kenya aboard flight KQ203, which left Mumbai, India, earlier today on Thursday, October 16, 2025. The flight, which has a total travel time of 6 hours and 5 minutes, is now halfway through its journey and expected to land at Jomo Kenyatta International Airport (JKIA) at around 9:30 am.

According to live flight trackers, the Kenya Airways plane is running slightly behind schedule, arriving more than three hours later than earlier anticipated. Despite the delay, anticipation and emotion are high across the country as Kenyans prepare to receive the body of the man many fondly call Baba.

Thousands of Kenyans at home and abroad have turned to online flight tracking tools to follow the plane’s progress minute by minute. The most popular platforms being used are FlightAware and Flightradar24, which allow anyone to monitor the flight’s real-time position, altitude, and estimated arrival time.

To track the flight, you can simply enter the flight number, KQ203, on any flight tracking website or app. These services display a live map showing the exact location of the plane, how fast it’s moving, and when it’s expected to land.

Alternatively, Google also offers a simple way to track flights. By typing “KQ203” into the search bar, users can instantly view the flight’s status, including takeoff time, progress, and estimated time of arrival.

For those who prefer text updates, some airlines allow passengers or followers to text a flight number to receive real-time notifications about delays, arrival gates, and baggage claim information.

As the country counts down the final hours before the arrival of Raila Odinga’s body, emotions remain heavy but united. The late opposition leader’s journey home marks the start of the nation’s most emotional farewell in recent years, a moment being followed live, not only in Kenya but across the world.

Raila Odinga’s body is expected to touch down at JKIA around 9:30 a.m., before being taken to Lee Funeral Home, ahead of the planned national prayer service and final burial in Bondo on Sunday, October 19, 2925.
